I've had two months to replace a MD with optical input (set the record from the table). I chose this model because below 700 or 800 euro is the only one with a digital input (SPDIF for once). My opinion will, therefore, that the record via SPDIF.

Firstly, the MP3 encoder is rotten. So I record to WAV and then encode to mp3 with Cdex (c and there much better).

From the beginning, I have problems with "disappearing sound" recording (SPDIF I recalls). Everything is going well and after a while in the middle of a song, Puff the MTII tells me that there is no input signal ... I put on pause and wonder! It picks up again. This is not a frequency problem between my console (01V96) and my MTII given that he was able for example to record 15 minutes without problem. I do not believe a desync because I do not see how the fact of pause resynchronization (and then it's not the message that tells me the MTII). As a customer service executive but had found nothing, my home studio dealer is kind enough to send me a new one I'll test tonight (I'll tell you if the problem is solved).

Low autonomy (although lower than my MD + which was to turn the cake all the same!) And non-replaceable battery (once dead, c good for beine in my opinion, except for sector).

No identification of white (my MD knew how): Fun beaches 3h in a row at the end of the repeats (well, if the connection was not interrupted spdif meantime. It's actually a case I unfortunately never had the pleasure to know).

In short, if this new MTII my SPDIF works fine, I'd say it's a good choice for this award for those who want a digital input, but for others: Flee! (Gonna be well after that if I want to sell ...! -)

NEXT DAY EDIT: Same problem by recording SPDIF. Ideally, I buy a new memory card from another manufacturer to see if the problem is there, but it fills me, I resell.
